Angling Pursuits Standard Coarse Net

Description

Practical & Reliable Pan Net for Coarse Anglers

When targeting general coarse species on canals, rivers, or commercial fisheries, having a lightweight, quick-maneuvering net is key to bringing fish to the bank smoothly. The Angling Pursuits Standard Coarse Net is designed with practicality in mind, combining a wide pan frame with a specialized scoop front to make netting silver fish and small-to-medium specimens hassle-free.

At Gerrys Fishing, we know that fast-paced coarse sessions require gear that reduces drag in the water and minimizes fuss on the bank. Angling Pursuits has crafted this net to offer fantastic value without compromising on functionality, giving anglers a solid, dependable option for everyday coarse fishing applications.

Key Features & Design Highlights

Specialized Scoop Front Design

The front rim of the frame features a gentle downward curve (scoop design). This lowers the entry barrier as you slide the net under a tired fish, allowing you to scoop your catch cleanly into the pocket with minimal resistanceespecially helpful when fishing off high banks or steep margins.

Compact & Lightweight Frame (60 cm x 50 cm)

The 60 x 50 cm pan shape offers the ideal middle-ground size. It provides plenty of target area for bream, tench, and F1s, while remaining lightweight and rigid enough to sweep swiftly through the water column without flexing excessively.

Generous 30 cm Mesh Depth

Despite its maneuverable pan shape, the mesh features a full 30 cm drop depth. This deep pocket gives fish room to settle below the frame edge, preventing nervous silver fish or lively carp from bouncing back out while you unhook them.

Universal Thread Connection

Fitted with a heavy-duty, standard brass thread block, this net head attaches seamlessly to standard telescopic or take-apart coarse landing net handles.

Where to Use

• Commercial Fisheries: Perfect for netting mixed bags of F1s, small carp, tench, and skimmers on the pole or feeder.

• Canals & Stillwaters: Ideal for silver fish sessions targeting roach, rudd, and perch where fast, repeatable netting is needed.

• Rivers & Streams: Excellent for float fishing applications targeting chub, dace, and grayling along gravel margins.

Technical Specifications

Gerrys Pro Tip

When netting silver fish or soft-mouthed bream, keep your net submerged and steady, pulling the fish over the scoop front rather than chasing the fish around with the net. The scoop front does the hard work for youonce the head of the fish crosses the rim, lift the handle vertically to securely trap your catch in the deep 30 cm mesh.
